After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback! - Chapter 1733

1733 Eating Apples
None of these women was a petty person. Usually, if anyone had any excess food, they would share it with everyone. It was naturally a good thing if everyone could plant trees together!

The truth was that Liu Yun had her own selfish motives. If her fruit trees and Qiao Mei’s fruit trees bore fruit in the future, it was inevitable that there would be neighbors who wanted to try some. If all the neighbors came and ate the fruits, there would not be many left for her family. Her intention was to supplement her children’s diet! Her family was not as rich as Qiao Mei’s family who did not mind sharing the fruits with others.

If everyone planted fruit trees together and every family had fruits to eat, no one would covet the fruits from her trees.

“Sure! This is a good idea! But… can we grow fruit trees here? I don’t have any experience,” Wang Nuo said worriedly.

“It’s fine, Sister-in-law. I’ve planted fruit trees before. My husband is planting the trees in the backyard right now. It’s so much easier to take care of fruit trees as compared with crops,” Qiao Mei said.

“How big can the fruits grow? What if the tree doesn’t bear fruit?” Zhang Cai asked.

“Let me show you the fruits from my house.” After saying that, Qiao Mei returned to the house and took out a few apples and peaches. As soon as she placed them on the table in the middle, Jin Yao quickly took two big red apples, one in each hand.

“Wow! This apple is so big!” Jin Yao hurriedly took a bite of the apple, her impatience stunning the rest of the women.

Qiao Mei was the one who brought out these fruits. Before she even said anything, Jin Yao had already taken two of them! How rude!

Qiao Mei distributed the fruits to everyone. After she was done, there were still some fruits left in the basket and everyone felt embarrassed to take more. Jin Yao simply ate up all the fruits. She ate messily and greedily, as if she was afraid that others would snatch them from her.

“You can’t buy such fruits outside! These fruits are so beautiful! They taste delicious too!” Zhang Cai said excitedly.

“I’ve never eaten such delicious apples in my life!” Wang Nuo said right after her.

Qiao Mei laughed and said, “The fruits from one fruit tree will be enough for you to eat. If you can’t finish them all, you can send some to your maternal family or sell them at the market to supplement your family’s income.”

“You’re right! My son keeps saying he wants to eat fruits. He’s at the growing stage now. If I don’t buy any for him, I’m worried that he won’t be able to grow up well. What if it leads to other issues in the future? However, fruits are really too expensive and I can’t bear to spend the money,” Wang Nuo said with a sigh.

“You don’t have to worry now. We can just plant trees ourselves!” Liu Yun said.

After Jin Yao wolfed down all the fruits, there was fruit juice all over her face. She looked at Qiao Mei eagerly and asked, “Do you still have any more fruits?”

“No, that’s all I have. Everything is here,” Qiao Mei said awkwardly.

Liu Yun knew that Qiao Mei was lying. There was no way that all the fruits she saw earlier were already all gone. Qiao Mei even gave her family a whole lot earlier. However, she would not betray Qiao Mei. She lowered her head and ate the apple in her hand silently.

After hearing from Qiao Mei that she did not have any fruits left, Jin Yao got up and went home without even saying “thank you” to Qiao Mei. She had even eaten all the three small apples that she brought with her. She was sure that since Qiao Mei’s apples were so big and sweet, Qiao Mei definitely would not be interested in the small apples she had.

Although she did not manage to ask Qiao Mei to let her hitch a ride to the county city, it was not a loss for her since she got the chance to eat such delicious fruits.

“Mei Mei, she’s too shameless! You can’t even bear to eat such good fruits yourself! She ate them all!” Wang Nuo said as she looked at the empty basket with heartache.

“She’s always like this! She simply doesn’t treat herself as an outsider! The last time she went to someone’s house, she ate up all the good stuff that they put aside for the new year! She’s like a hungry ghost reincarnated!” Zhang Cai said angrily.

“Isn’t that so! Her husband earns a lot, but it’s still not enough for her to eat. This woman is such a spendthrift! She eats everything that’s nice and eats so much that her family can’t make ends meet. Her husband even borrowed money from my husband some time ago!” Liu Yun said.

“So serious?” Qiao Mei asked in shock.
